1. Introduction

These terms and conditions apply to the use of this website, www.artzotec.com (the "Website"). By visiting artzotec.com or by placing an order, you confirm that you have read fully and agree to these terms and conditions. If you do not agree to these terms and conditions, you must not use this Website.
We may update or vary our terms and conditions from time to time, so please check this page for the latest version whenever you visit artzotec.com

Artzotec.com does not disclose buyer's information to third parties. We fully comply with the data protection laws applicable to the United Kingdom.
How is customer information protected?
Ordering online is protected by the PayPal secure server. The secure server uses industry-standard SSL encryption that encrypts all information you input before it is sent to us. We recommend you use an up to date Internet browser, which supports 128-bit encryption. We do not receive or retain your credit card information.

4. Placing your order

When you place an order with us (by choosing an item and completing our online checkout process), we will send you an acknowledgement by email. This will detail the products you have ordered. Please note that your completion of the online checkout process does not constitute our acceptance of your order.

Our acceptance of your order only takes place when we despatch it. A 'purchase contract' between you and artzotec.com is therefore made at the point of despatch, rather than at the point of payment. If you have cancelled your order, or if we notify you that we cannot accept your order, then no purchase contract will have been made.

From time to time, we may not be able to accept an order for the following reasons:
a. If, unfortunately, we do not have your chosen goods in stock and cannot obtain more stock for any reason within 30 days, unless an extended delivery period is agreed with you in advance
b. Where we cannot obtain authorisation for your payment
c. If there has been a pricing or product description error
d. Other circumstances beyond our control make completion of the order impossible

We reserve the right to cancel your order at any time and issue a full refund. This does not affect your statutory rights.

4. Delivery/Shipping Policy

All purchases will be dispatched, once payment has cleared, within 28 working days. If in the unlikely event this is not possible we will inform you as soon as possible of any delay. All items delivered within the UK will be sent by Royal Mail first or second class post or Royal Mail Standard Parcels services, all non-UK purchases will be sent by airmail, unless agreed otherwise.

5. Refund, Replacement and Cancellation terms

At artzotec.com we are confident that you will be happy with your purchase. If for some reason you are unhappy with your item(s) and need to return it, for example where the item(s) has been damaged in transit or the wrong item(s) has been sent, please notify us within 7 days of receipt that you intend to return the product. We will fully reimburse the cost of the item and return postage by the most economical means available, please take care to maintain the item(s) in its original condition. Alternatively, if you request, we will supply a replacement item(s) instead of a refund, for any damaged goods, once they have been returned to us within 7 days of your taking delivery.
Your right to return items to us in accordance with these terms and conditions is in addition to any other statutory rights you may have.

Cancellation of your order can be made before dispatch or within 7 days of receipt of the item(s).
